Happy turkey day, now get back to work!

Okay, so....I've been lax on pictures the last day or so. I'll put up more soon, honest.

So...

1. Spent WAT too much on supplies. Home Depot owns me. Still, we needed the stuff we bought, and some of it is new tools.
2. Tile is done. Put a nice bead of silicone around the tub and bathroom.
3. Hallway/Master bedroom/office have floors. MB has partial baseboards down. Office is getting baseboards as I type.
4. I've been doing some fairly custom woodwork on the thresholds and the bullnose at the top of the stairs. Tile guy kinda screwed me on height, so I've had to do some dicking out about there. Lots and lots and lots of sanding/staining/poly. (like 8 hours spent on that so far, and I have more to do tomorrow).
5. Some other little things/surprises...Wy'll see when she gets home, though I'm not completely happy with it yet...heh, how's that for mystery, hmmm?

We're at the home stretch on the floors now, will hopefully be able to burn them out this evening. Then its to finishing and cleaning. Cleaning is going to be a treat. We've done a good job of cleaning up after ourselves as we go, but just the sheer volume of debris is just crazy. Calling tomorrow to see if the home depot folks will dump a trash dumpster off this weekend or monday.

Happy turkey day!
